Spent our second Valentine dinner at Kuzina. Just like the first, the food was plentiful (took home leftovers both times!) and delicious. We managed to squeeze in a dessert flight which was all good but loved the baklava best. The staff was friendly and responsive. In spite of the restaurant being busy, as you would expect on Valentine's Day, the food came out quickly. We recommend this place for the good food and atmosphere but warn you, come hungry!
